New Story Formats

Spin View

Spin View is an interactive Story format that breaks free from the traditional fixed frame. When a creator shares a Spin View Story, viewers can rotate their smartphone (or drag on the screen) to pan through a wide panoramic scene captured through the glasses. Instead of passively watching a video, the audience controls the perspective by physically moving their device or swiping, creating a more immersive, 360-degree-like viewing experience . As Meta described it, Spin View “breaks free from the static frame of traditional stories” .

Multi-Cam Stories

Multi-Cam Stories allow creators to combine footage from multiple Meta glasses devices into a single Story. The feature is designed for scenarios where several people wearing glasses capture the same moment from different points of view. The creator can then stitch those clips together seamlessly within Instagram, offering viewers a multi-angle perspective of an event or scene . This leverages the growing ecosystem of Meta glasses users who can all capture content hands-free.

Native Editing Tools for Glasses Content

Instagram also introduced new editing tools specifically for content shot on Meta glasses :

• Dynamic Photo – This feature automatically snaps multiple frames and recommends the best shot to the user, while still allowing manual selection of a favorite photo to share. It was announced alongside the launch of the new Meta Glasses in partnership with EssilorLuxottica .
• AI-powered editing tools – Users can apply photo animation, AI edits, and creative restyling effects through the Meta AI companion app before sharing to Stories .
• Voice commands for posting – Hands-free publishing is a core part of the experience. Users can say “Hey Meta, post a photo to Instagram” to take and immediately share a new photo, or “Hey Meta, share last video to Instagram” to quickly post recent footage .

Supported Smart Glasses Models

All three current Meta AI glasses models support these features :

• Ray-Ban Meta – The original and next-generation collaboration with Ray-Ban.
• Oakley Meta – Sports-focused models including the Oakley HSTN and Oakley Vanguard.
• Meta Glasses – The new prescription-ready smart glasses launched in partnership with EssilorLuxottica in June 2026.

The update arrives as Meta continues to expand its smart glasses ecosystem, with the new Meta Glasses representing the first model designed for prescription lenses. According to Meta, the goal is to make first-person video content “more interactive and immersive than ever before” .

How to Get Started

To use these features, glasses owners need to connect their Instagram profile to the Meta AI companion app (formerly Meta View). Once set up, they can say “Hey Meta, post a photo to Instagram” to capture and share hands-free, or record a video and later share it by voice command . The Spin View and Multi-Cam formats are automatically available when posting content captured with a compatible glasses device.

These new tools represent a significant step in making smart glasses a mainstream content creation device, turning everyday moments into interactive Stories that viewers can explore rather than just watch.
